My Subaru WRX - russelllinn - 16-11-2017

I have been looking for bits and bobs for the WRX since buying it, I know it's only just over a month but couldn't help myself :biggrin:

Managed to pick up some good bits so far from various sources and Scooby owners, the most of it in a performance package off one guy who is now selling his car and had already purchased the bits.

The car so far has a Stage 1 upgrade inc, full de-cat exhaust, air-filter upgrade, dawes deviec and a re-map, so should be running in the region of 275bhp (est).

I have now collected the following bits for a further upgrade but waiting on funds to fit them and get it mapped again once fitted, which is gonna cost a little bit so will need the Christmas overtime, when it gets paid!!

1. Prodrive downpipe with sports cat
2.OE Headers ported
3. Flexi up-pipe
4.TD05H 16G FE Turbo ported
5.STI Version 8 intercooler with y piece
6.Version 7 bonnet undertray to suit the larger cooler
7.STI Version 7 550 pink injectors
8.3 Port boost solonoid
9. Prodrive 255ltr fuel pump
10. Eiback lowering springs

I should then get approx 320-330bhp and 280-300ft/lb torque :biggrin:

Haven't decided on the sports cat or not yet as i have the de--cat but don't want to run into issues with MOTs, what you peeps think?

Well I had a problem in my mot with the emissions and just used red-x and a good thrashing before I got it re checked and all was good.
All does sound good what you are going to do, keep us updated with your progress :thumbup:

Thanks guys and for the info Moley ref the Cat!

Time scale wise I am hoping for Feb / March realistically but maybe before as I usually find I get impatient and spend the money before I have it which gets me in trouble :Chair: and I am meant to moving end of Feb so will need some extra cash at that time.

I LOVE the sound of my Scooby Prodrive back box, only paid £110 for it, so worth tracking one down, to add to your list.

A good buy I would like a different backbox as the one at the moment is rather large, so thanks for the info, where did you find yours? ebay?

My Subaru WRX - FirebirdPhil - 17-11-2017

No SPC Horsham had it "lying about". They are lifetime guarantee so if you find one on Ebay you should be OK.
